“You must cherish your clothes,” said Hubert de Givenchy who also
believed that “dressing a woman is to make her more beautiful.”
Renowned for its ladylike and timeless aesthetic, the house of
Givenchy received a whole new twist under the direction of the
aristocratic designer's successors, John Galliano and Alexander
McQueen. After a short period of decline, the famous brand started
to rise again when Riccardo Tisci was named creative director in
2005.

“But I learned that M. Givenchy and I actually share many of the
same codes: He was all about severity, aristocracy, irony, and
couture craftsmanship, too,” Tisci told Vogue. Nevertheless, the
Italian designer brought some new elements to the legendary brand.
For the Givenchy spring 2012
collection, Tisci brought some really stunning pieces that
featured couture-inspired details. There were chiffon sequins,
lasered leather cutouts, and beautifully tailored
silhouettes.

For the Givenchy fall 2012 collection, Riccardo Tisci showcased an
array of looks with an equestrian flare. There was an outstanding
masculine-feminine combination that drew everyone's attention.
Well, for the house's spring 2013 collection the designer went back
to the Givenchy heritage. “I
went back to the roots of the house,” Tisci explained, “and worked
on the sixties of Hubert [de Givenchy] - which was the best period
for me.”

So, yes, Givenchy's line for spring 2013 featured alongside black
and gray a light color palette that included baby blue and pale
beige. Tisci also added some elements inspired by “the geometry and
the lightness of the shapes in wood and the metal” coming from the
furniture designs of the enigmatic creative force Carlo
Mollino.
Well, we now wait to see what Riccardo Tisci has created for
Givenchy's fall 2013 collection that will be showcased at Paris Fashion Week on March 3. Check
